Basin Bridge near Higham on the Hill, Leicestershire
Bridge No 22 on the Ashby Canal as it approaches Stoke Golding.
The canal is a very popular one for boaters because (at present) it has twenty-two miles with no locks to negotiate, and is mainly through rural and attractive countryside. It was opened in 1804, but never reached its intended destination of Ashby-de-la-Zouch. Active effort is now being made to extend the canal beyond its present limit at Snarestone.

The Ashby Canal south of Stoke Golding, Leicestershire
The canal appears very wide in the image because the foreground includes part of the large winding hole north of Basin Bridge. Could this be the origin of the name Basin here? There is no real canal basin nearby.

Bridge Number 22 is Basin Bridge and takes Basin Bridge Lane over the canal. It probably dates from no later than 1804 when the canal was built. Unlike several other bridges on the canal it does not merit Grade II Listing status.
